Benefits of technology

[0025] In a fourth aspect of the invention there is provided a method of treatment or prevention of a condition in a patient comprising administering to the patient a preparation according to the third aspect of the invention. The preparation may be administered in sufficient quantity over sufficient time to treat or prevent the condition. It may be administered between once per hour and once per week. The preparation may be administered as required. For example if the preparation is for the prevention of a cardiovascular condition following exercise, the preparation may be administered before, during and/or after exercise. The patient may drink or otherwise consume the preparation. The patient may be human or non-human, and may be a vertebrate. The vertebrate may be a mammal, a marsupial or a reptile. The mammal may be a primate or non-human primate or other non-human mammal. The mammal may be selected from the group consisting of human, non-human primate, equine, murine, bovine, leporine, ovine, caprine, feline and canine. The mammal may be selected from a human, horse, cattle, sheep, dog, cat, goat, llama, rabbit and a camel, for example.
[0026] In a fifth aspect of the invention there is provided a method of enhancing sports activities in a subject comprising administering to the subject a preparation comprising Schisandrin B. The Schisandrin B may be the (−) isomer. The preparation may be a preparation according to the present invention, as described above.

Extraction and Purification of (−)Schisandrin B (Sch B)

[0060] Dried powder of the Schisandra fruits (Schisandra chinensis (Turcz) Baillon) was extracted with petroleum ether. The petroleum ether extract was then subjected to silica gel column chromatography using isocratic elution with acetone:petroleum ether (5:95, v / v). The Schisandrin B-containing fractions, as detected by thin layer chromatography, were pooled, and a crude crystalline fraction was obtained. The crystalline fraction was further purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC using Prep Nova-Pak HR C18 (19×300 mm) column eluted by methanol : H2O (75:25, v / v). Purified (−) Schisandrin B and (+) Schisandrin B were obtained, and the chirality of (−) Schisandrin B and (+) Schisandrin B (FIG. 1) was confirmed by optical rotation measurement, with the specific rotation measured in methanol at 20° C. being −47.2° and +55.3°, respectively. HPLC analysis using chiral column (CHIRACEL OD-H, 4.6×250 mm, Diacel Chemical Industri...

Time-Course of (−) Schisandrin B-Induced Increase In Cellular GSH Level in H9c2 Cells: Protection Against Oxidative Challenge by Xanthine / Xanthine Oxidase (X / XO)

Methods

Cell Culture

[0063] H9c2 cells, a permanent cell line derived from cardiac myoblasts of rat embryo, have early been characterized as a suitable model of myocardial cells [Hescheler et al. 1991). H9c2 cells were cultured as monolayers in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (GIBCO BRL) supplemented with 10% (v / v) fetal bovine serum. The medium contained glucose (4.5 g / L) and glutamine (4.5 mM), supplemented with NaHCO3 (17 mM), penicillin (100 IU / ml), and streptomycin (100 μg / ml). Cells were grown under an atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air at 37° C. The medium was replaced by fresh medium every 2 or 3 days. A stock of cells was grown in a 75 cm culture flask and split before confluence at a subcultivation ratio of 1:10. Cells used for experiments were seeded at a density of 3.75×104 cells / well on a 12-well culture plate,...

Abstract

The present invention provides a preparation for treatment or prevention of a condition in a patient, said preparation comprising Schisandrin B. The concentration of Schisandrin B in the preparation may be between about 0.01 and about 0.1%, or it may be between about 20 and about 40% w/w or w/v. The preparation may additionally comprise one or more components selected from the group consisting of herbal extracts, fluids, solvents, antioxidants, preservatives, electrolytes, salts and pH control agents.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to preparations comprising Schisandrin B, to methods for making the preparations, and to methods for prevention and / or treatment of heart disease or other conditions using the preparations. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Physical exercise is generally beneficial to health by enhancing body metabolism and improving heart-lung function as well as muscle endurance. One fact that is unknown to many people is the potential harmful effect produced by unaccustomed exercise due to the insufficiency in heart-lung function. When the heart-lung function is adequate for the exercise or the loss of body fluid from profuse sweating is not quickly replenished, the muscle may be injured and the heart-lung function may suffer instead of becoming healthier after exercise. [0003] Shengmai San (SMS), a Chinese medicine formula comprising Ginseng root, Schisandra fruit and Ophiopogonis root, was first cited in Chinese medical literature in 1247 AD...
